Pricing all depends. You can buy cars individually, you can buy the monthly car pack, which is 7$, or you can buy a seasons pass that gives you 6 months of free DLC for 30$. I got the november speed pack DLC for free(7$) from the forza forums from one of the game devs.

What is included:

2012 Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4
2012 Aston Martin Virage
2011 #2 Audi Sport Team Joest R15++ TDI
2011 Audi RS3 Sportback
1957 Chevrolet Bel Air
2012 Dodge Charger SRT8
2011 Ferrari #62 Risi Competizione F458 Italia
2013 Ford Focus ST
1992 GMC Typhoon
2011 Volkswagen Scirocco R
That's somewhat dissapointing I am looking forward to the #2 Audi and #62 Ferrari (glad it's not another F430) but the rest is weak. Still no e90 or AMG C63 coupe.

sadly I don't think the e90 will be in the game. Probably the F30 will be in it.

I'm competing against you in R2 so I can't say But it all depends on the car, somtimes going with heavy Dub or Lexani rims lowers just a few points so you can add more power or traction. I beleive your car is AWD correct? If you are having traction issues, go with the wider tires.

nope, car is RWD. Reason being the limit is 875. So I can either go with smaller tires (340 square set up) and super light rims, or I can go 360 square set up with the stock rims.

Who's TJOB543? Playing bumper cars isn't nice or funny, then following up with texts like "pussy" isnt either. Thought we were a mature club here.

Greenkirby,
Since I'm not running in R2 here's my 2c on it.

Here's what the effect is:
Running "taller" wheels, say bumping from 19's to 21's has 2 effects.
1. Shortens the wall height of your tires: this slightly removes a little
give in weight transfers. depending on how stiff and balanced your setup
is you may notice slightly higher responsiveness to inputs, but if your setup
is already on the soft side you probably wont notice an effect.
2. Slightly reduces the transferred torque at the road, because of the wider diameter. So if youve been unable to eliminate wheel spin at the rear
at the engines max torque point via damping, this is an additional tweak
that you can make.

My personal bias, in this game, is this order of preference,
1. handling, so go as wide on the grip as the car allows
2. power to weight. go as light as you can without compromising #1.
this is almost always aftermarket rims. Ive found the lightest to be
- TSW
- Watanabe
- Advan

so if your damping settings allow you to run the smaller rims go with
that with widest possible setting on both front and rear, especially
the rear. But if you need to run taller rims, you still want to choose
the lightest that you can.

use the "benchmark" feature to test each combination paying attention
to the effect on 0-100 times, braking distance, and Lateral G's.
shorter wider lighter rims will improve all of those metrics ive found,
they just dont look as good .

Jfly - add Buddy Club rims to your list...they are the lightest along with TSW.

I'm not very stoked about this DLC either, the Nov was dissapointing as well. That Suzuki does look like a blast, how does it perform on regular road courses? Just curious, but is it R1? Now a Pontiac Fiero with the GT0 engine + lightweight mods would be an interesting car


Also.....if anyone is interested we need a R1 and R2 driver for Dan's winter tournament (prized are involed and it will only cost you 1 hour per week). Here is a quote taken from his email, "1st – we need 1 player for LMP1 (R1/X) and 1 player for GT1 (R2). Not sure what happened with XXXX XXX, but he didn’t show up to a single race other than the first try at Indy. So I need a replacement for him in R1/X. Whoever takes over his spot will get all of his points. Secondly, I need a replacement for XXX XXXX who couldn’t connect to large parties. He backed out of the season himself. He is in R2/GT1 and we need a replacement. Whoever takes over his spot will get all of his points."

If they get a license agreement with Porsche, can't wait until they charge us for content they were going to include with the game!
